Seijun Suzuki: PASSPORT TO DARKNESS on 35mm
Sat Apr 9 | 5:30 pm
"Passport to Darkness tracks a trombone-playing bandleader (Ryoji Hayama) as he descends into an urban inferno while searching for the strangler of his murdered girlfriend. Trailed by the cops, Hayama falls into classic noir paranoia as he unravels the mystery, learning his lover had been involved with a heroin ring. Suzuki mesmerizes the viewer through the slow patches, meticulously orchestrating Hayama's hellish pilgrimage amongst hit men, junkies, transvestites, whores and corrupt diplomats." Chris D., Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film
